Just to be clear:

Trans people are the working class. Black people are the working class. Immigrants are the working class. Pregnant people are the working class. Brown people are the working class. Asian people are the working class. Disabled people are the working class.

Olivia Just Wants Tech To Be Fun Again @kingdomfantasy6.bsky.social · 15h

I have a lot of thoughts about this that should be more composed before I fully go off, but for now I'll just say that NEVER assume that because someone is non-verbal, that they don't have anything to say.

Also don't assume they have the mind of a child. That is so fucked up.

We're learning so much more about the experiences of nonverbal autistic people now, too, thanks to increasing awareness and assistive technology, and what really stood out to me was how much their intelligence, experiences, and suffering have been unheard and dismissed in favor of the parents' POV.

I don’t exactly how to phrase this, but like… is autism that bad???? Like, why is it such a source of fear??? Of course there are challenges but you can be autistic and have a rich, fulfilling life! Many people do! I don’t understand the preoccupation.

Both are places where fantastic singers come from, as well as places where people sing together. Very wholesome.

As much as I love talented and skilled singers, I really enjoy meeting people from Wales or Hawai'i who don't sing especially well but still like to sing.

Music is for everyone to enjoy.

I really have come to 100% believe that the younger, equally evil members of the Trump administration are constantly using AI slop to manipulate their elders.

RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome is now a pathology."

One of the few organized aid appeals I share. Crips for eSims for Gaza materially help Gaza folks by providing eSims so they can communicate with their families and the world. Read the updates and how to most effectively help.

I like that level of uncertainty, because the name rose around a loose association of music and aesthetics, with self-identification and in-out groups coming on a bit slowly.

I remember the arguments about whether The Cure even counted as goth at all, well into the 1980s. People are funny

I'm generally a peaceful sort, but The Smashing Pumpkins should be pantsed and credit-carded at the very minimum, for considering themselves goth-adjacent.
